Wow! This combined use of Dust & Scratches with Gaussian Blur is also magic for restoring images of old photographs. I have been using a Gaussian blur filter with the history brush for a long time, and that is a common suggestion for editing pixels associated with dust, etc. on old photographs. This combination working on a mask is far easier to apply and has the added ability to adjust the mask to change opacity of the revisions.

I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. followed your instructions and when I use the brush – nothing happens. Nothing deletes ~ I’m on the mask layer. I have the newest photoshop? Any idea what I might be doing wrong??? thank you ~ kara
